@djski, I was wondering whether BVU has any relation to the machine being high band or SP, and it seems it does not. It seems that BVU means pro features like ability to connect to a TBC or timecode generator, but in terms of sheer quality it can be the same low band machine.

Please correct me if I am wrong, in the U.S. it was like low band -> BVU low band -> SP, that is, BVU label was dropped after SP came out.

while in PAL regions it was low band -> high band -> SP. So, I am unsure whether PAL regions had both low band BVU and high band BVU?
